Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un connecteur notamment destiné à être fixé sur un motoréducteur en vue de son raccordement électrique à un circuit de commande, lequel motoréducteur est constitué par un carter formé par deux demi-coquilles à l'intérieur desquelles est logé un moteurd'entrainement alimenté électriquement par deux balais en contact avec le collecteur d'un induit tournant dont l'arbre se prolonge par une vis sans fin entraînant une roue de réduction.The present invention relates to a connector in particular intended to be fixed to a geared motor for its electrical connection to a control circuit, which geared motor is constituted by a casing formed by two half-shells inside which is housed a drive motor electrically powered by two brushes in contact with the collector of a rotating armature whose shaft is extended by a worm screw driving a reduction wheel.
Les connecteurs connus de ce type c'est à dire destinés à être fixés sur un motoréducteur nécessite généralement une modification du boitier, généralement une lumière pratiquée dans le carter ou dans une patte rapportée dans laquelle s'emboite ledit connecteur. Ceci présente l'inconvénient de nécessiter la créction d'un nouveau carter en fonction de choque type de connecteur exigé par les cahiers des charges ou dans le cas de la patte rapportée de créer une pièce supplèmentaire.Known connectors of this type, that is to say intended to be fixed to a geared motor generally requires a modification of the housing, generally a light made in the casing or in an attached lug in which said connector fits. This has the disadvantage of requiring the creation of a new casing according to each type of connector required by the specifications or in the case of the added tab to create an additional part.
De plus la fixation de ces connecteurs entraine parfois l'emploi de vis qui contribuent à nuire à l'étanchéité de l'ensemble déjà compromise par l'ouverture de lumières d'emboîtement, ce qui n'est pas tolèrable dans le cas d'une application du motoréducteur au lève vitre de portière de véhicule, particulièrement soumis au ruissellement d'eau.In addition, the fixing of these connectors sometimes results in the use of screws which contribute to impairing the tightness of the assembly already compromised by the opening of interlocking lights, which is not tolerable in the case of an application of the gearmotor to the window regulator of the vehicle door, particularly subject to water runoff.
Pour remédier aux problèmes d'étanchéité il est connu d'obtenir un connecteur de moulage avec le carter, mais cela ne supprime pas l'obligation de créer un carter pour choque connecteurs différents ou en l'absence de connecteur ce qui est parfois demandé lors d'un raccordement par soudure.To remedy the sealing problems, it is known to obtain a molding connector with the casing, but this does not eliminate the obligation to create a casing for each different connector or in the absence of a connector, which is sometimes requested during a welded connection.
La présente invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant un connecteur ne modifiant pas la structure du carter quelque soit le connecteur demandé, le motoréducteur est ainsi standard et parfaitement étanche.The object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a connector which does not modify the structure of the casing whatever the connector requested, the geared motor is thus standard and perfectly sealed.
A cet effet l'invention concerne un connecteur destiné à être fixé sur un motoréducteur en vue de son raccordement électrique à un circuit décommande, lequel motoréducteur est constitué par un carter formé par deux demi-coquilles à l'intérieur desquelles est logé un moteur d'entrainement alimenté électriquement par deux balais en contact avec le collecteur d'un induit tournant dont l'arbre se prolonge par une vissons fin entraînant une roue de réduction caractérisé en ce qu'il-comporte des moyens de fixation qui sont constitués par deux ailettes déformables élastiquement, obtenues de moulage avec le boitier du connecteur et prolongeant ses parois latérales pour former un cavalier dont les branches, en l'occurence les parois s'escamottent ou passage d'au moins deux ergots disposés de part et d'autre des deux demi-coquilles du carter qu'il chevauche, jusqu'à ce qu'ils débouchent dans deux lumières correspondantes ménagées dans les branches du cavalier pour s'y encliqueter.To this end, the invention relates to a connector intended to be fixed to a geared motor for its electrical connection to a control circuit, which geared motor is constituted by a casing formed by two half-shells inside which is housed a motor drive powered electrically by two brushes in contact with the collector of a rotating armature, the shaft of which is extended by a fine screw driving a reduction wheel characterized in that it comprises means for fixing which are constituted by two elastically deformable fins, obtained by molding with the connector housing and extending its side walls to form a jumper whose branches, in this case the walls retract or passage of at least two lugs disposed of on either side of the two half-shells of the casing which it straddles, until they open into two corresponding openings made in the branches of the rider to engage there.
La description qui va suivre en fonction des dessins annexés fera mieux comprendre comment l'invention peut être réalisée.The following description based on the accompanying drawings will make it easier to understand how the invention can be implemented.
La figure 1 représente une vue en perspective d'un connecteur suivant l'invention, en cours de montage sur un motoréducteurFIG. 1 represents a perspective view of a connector according to the invention, during mounting on a geared motor
La figure 2 est une vue en plan du connecteur après montage et raccordement électrique avec le motoréducteur, représenté partiellement.Figure 2 is a plan view of the connector after mounting and electrical connection with the gearmotor, shown partially.
Le connecteur 1 représenté sur les figures est notamment destiné à être fixé sur un motoréducteur 2 en vue du raccordement électrique de ce dernier à un circuit de commande d'essuie-glace ou de lève-glace de véhicule automobile.The
Le motoréducteur 2 est constitué de manière connue par un carter 3 formé par deux demi-coquilles 4 et 5 à l'intérieur desquelles est logé (non représentés) un moteur d'entrainement alimenté électriquement par deux balais en contact avec le collecteur d'un induit tournant dont l'arbre se prolonge par une vis sans fin entrainant une roue de réduction, l'amenée de courant aux balais s'effectuant par deux conducteurs 6 et 7, traversant le carter 3 par l'intermédiaire d'un passe câble 8 et dont les extrémités libres sont soudées sur deux fiches de connexion mâles 9 et 10 surmoulées dans le connecteur. 1 et débouchent dans un logement 11 de forme correspondante à un connecteur femelle (non représenté) disposé à l'extrémité du faisceau du circuit de commande du véhicule.The geared
Le connecteur 1 ainsi raccordé électriquement au motoréducteur 2 est fixé sur ce dernier grâce à des moyens qui sont constitués par deux ailettes 12 et 13 déformables élastiquement, obtenues avec le boitier 14 du connecteur 1 au cours d'une même opération de moulage d'une matière plastique et prolongeant ses parois latérales 15 et 16 pour former un cavalier dont les branches latérales en l'occurence les ailettes 12 et 13 chevauchent les demi-coquilles 4 et 5 et, s'escomottent élastiquement dans le sens Fl au passage des ergots 17,18 et 19, dont l'un 17 est disposé sur la demi coquille 5 et les deux autres 18 et 19 sur la demi-coquille 4 à proximité du bord supérieur du carter 3. Cette assymétrie des ergots 17, 18 et 19 a pour but d'éviter le basculement du connecteur 1 sur le motoréducteur 2. L'escamotage élastique des branches ou ailettes 12 et 13 à ainsi lieu jusqu'à ce que les ergots 17,18 et 19 débouchent simultanément, pour s'y encliqueter, dans trois lumières correspondantes 20, 21 et 22 ménagées à proximité des bords inférieurs 12a et 130 des ailettes 12 et 13. Les ailettes 12 et 13 reprennent alors leur position initiale dans le sens F2 grâce à l'élasticité conférée par la matière plastique, élasticité accrue en rehaussant les charnières 23 et 24 ce qui permet un accroissement de la longueur des ailettes 12 et 13 donc de leur élasticité.The
